Alliance of Coastal States

The Alliance of Coastal States (沿岸諸国連合(えんがんしょこくれんごう), engan shokoku rengō^?, kanji: lit. "coast various countries alliance") is a loose association of small nations (mostly kingdoms), located on the southern side of the peninsula surrounded by the mazoku barrier. It borders Ralteague to the west, Saillune to the east, and part of its eastern border is also connected to the Desert of Destruction. (Some maps show this territory as part of Saillune, which is most likely incorrect, but the nations of the peninsula do not have entirely precise boundaries.)

Unlike what its name might suggest, quite a few of the states that make up the alliance are landlocked. These are more recent additions; the original countries which created the association were all found on the southern shoreline, and despite changes in membership since then, the title stuck.

The following member states are referenced in Slayers stories (the list is most likely incomplete at the moment):

• Taforashia
• Zoana
• Ruvinagald
• Femille (?)
• Lenos (?)

Note that those marked with (?) were not directly mentioned to be part of the alliance, so it's theoretically possible that they are found elsewhere on the peninsula, simply being too small to appear on maps.
